Our Ten Favorite Dogs From “Family Guy” Not Named “Brian Griffin”
Vinny
Vinny was another dog that was brought in as a replacement for Brian but, Vinny came with a few extra tricks like if Peter asked him to fetch a stick, he could bring back an iPhone. 1/16th cat, Vinny is what is referred to as a pussy hound (we cannot confirm or deny if that is a real thing). At a point Vinny had even replaced Brian in the opening credits of the show but, during the “Christmas Guy” episode Vinny made the ultimate sacrifice by going back in time to save Brian resulting in the family never picking him up from the pet store.

There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
